"Is it possible Baimon didn't seek out other Devil Archdukes because he knew the other Devils wouldn't come either? Devils are such a calculating race—they probably wouldn't join it in attacking the fortress just to avenge some family grudge. But those lunatics among the Demons might actually do it."
Jia Xiu analyzed the situation seriously.
After all, considering the records of Baimon's past, it was simply unreasonable for it to attack using only the Devil forces under its own command.

If it truly lacked ability, how had it remained a Devil Archduke for so many years without being devoured alive by its own kind?
